BROKEN SEAL
Episode 8
Naomi stood at the doorpost,
watching Tomas. She can’t help
but pity him, he sat on his bed
weeping again.
He probably didn’t notice her
presence in the room, she wish
she could help him, this is too
much of a burden for only one
person to bear, but what can
she do about his sight?
Absolutely nothing!
She can only care for him and
hope God would send someone
who would make a huge
donation to the orphanage, so
Tomas can benefit from it.
She sat next to Tomas on the
bed, this act got him startled.
Tomas: (using his hands to
search the bed) who are you?
Naomi: its me, mother Naomi.
Tomas: oh! Mother, you
startled me.
Naomi: sorry about that, are
you weeping again?
Tomas: (using the back of his
hand to wipe his tears) No am
not.
Naomi: you shouldn’t try
hiding it, i saw you.
Tomas: hmmmm
Naomi: here, i brought some
noodles for you, your favorite!
Tomas: thanks, but i don’t
think i’d eat right now.
Naomi: please you have to eat,
you wouldn’t wanna get sick
would you?
She mouth-fed him with the
plate of noodles then crowned
it with a glass of cold water.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Isabella is having fun to the
brim, with two of her friends.
They drank to stupor and are
still drinking.
In her semi-right senses, she
observed her brother is no
where in sight,
The chair he sat on earlier is
empty.
Where could he possibly be?
She asked no one in particular.
Isabella: (drunken voice)
excuse me girls, i’d be back in
a jiffy.
Girl1: hey where to? Make sure
you get some drinks okay?
Girl2: lets flush the boredorm
college created in us yeeeee!!!
Isabella: (jovially) rubbish!!!
She went to the Vip wing, he
wasn’t there, she shifted her
gaze to the dance hall, despite
the red dim light, she could
see her bro, dancing with a
lady.
She staggered over there.
Isabella: (holding the hem of
his tux) hey bro, i’ve been
searching everywhere for you,
not knowing you’ar here with
this (pointing, staggering)
bìtch.
Man: hey lady i don’t know
you, get lost.
Isabella: (taking a proper look
at his face) huh? Wrong
person!!
She made to leave when a lady
gripped her hand.
Lady: who did you call bìtch
earlier huh?
Isabella: do you look any
better?
Lady: gbaooai (mighty slap)
you don’t talk to me like that,
got it?
Isabella: how dare you slap
me?
She(Isabella) reached reached
for the lady’s hair, pulling her
hair fiercly as if to uproot the
hair.
The lady kicked Isabella on her
left thigh.
Isabella replied with a punch
on the lady’s cheek. The lady
fell to the floor, with blood
surging from her nose.
Isabella isn’t done yet, she
hoped on the lady, punching
and slapping her.
All this happened in seconds.
The man whom Isabella
mistook his identity, tried
taking Isabella off his girl…..
Isabella: jerk! Don’t touch me,
else i pounce on you!!!
This infuriated him the more.
Man: you’ar so full of your self
huh? Gboooai i gave her a
thundurous slap, the slap had a
great effect on Isabella. The
man was about raining
punches on Isai, when samuel
came into the picture, one of
Isabella’s friends had informed
him.
He (samuel) dragged the man
by the back of his tux, the man
turned to face samuel, in a
quick reflex samuel sent a
punch message to his (the
man’s) jaw.
Not minding today is his day,
and the man is a guest, all that
mattered to him is doing what
Isaiah would have done, if he
was to witness the scene.
The two men started a short-
lived fist fight, until other
persons separated them.
